Chapter 270: Starting the Counterattack
Translator: 549690339
Huang Xian is a yellow weasel in folk beliefs, also known as a yellow-skinned rat. This animal is known for being skilled at stealing chickens from farrs and having a highly spiritual nature. Huang Xian is said to hold grudges, so people should not provoke them.
Older generations firmly believe that Huang Xian can possess people, causing them to speak nonsense or even act insanely. There’s even a saying, “a yellow weasel exchanges lives; one life for another life.” People don’t dare to ss with it or attack it when they see it. Xiao Qian didn’t have a definite conclusion on whether this was true or not, as many remote areas believe in it.
Shi Yu’s shout made everyone stop in their tracks. Xiao Qian smiled, happy with the emotional effect, and decided to continue the act!
Could it be that Shi Yu was possessed by Huang Xian?
After shouting, Shi Yu suddenly started convulsing as if seized by cramps, rolling on the ground. At first, she robed horizontally. After two rolls, she suddenly jumped up and began performing exaggerated dancing movents, similar to disco moves but more extre. She rolled her eyes back, and her hands beca claw-like.
She also mumbled sothing indecipherable.
Xiao Qian found it hilarious in her heart. She asked Shi Yu to act like a possessed shaman, but what on earth was she mumbling?
“Good cat, good dog, sobody’s soft-shelled turtle died, all the English-speaking people are dogs, all of them are dogs, teachers all walk in a crouch! Flatten a basin, make a pancake, basin flat, pancake flat! Black fertilizer volatilizes, turns gray and flowers fly! Gray fertilizer volatilizes, turns black and flowers fly!”
She spoke too fast, mixed Chinese with English, and even included so Qiang City dialect which made it sound frightening. The tongue twister ca out like a soul-summoning incantation!
Xiao Qian would have been scared if she didn’t know what was going on, as the performance was done artistically.
The man who was buying Shi Yu was dumbfounded, and Big Baldy clutched the money tightly in fear.
Was she frightened insane? If she beca insane, they couldn’t sell her at a high price, and the money would be nonrefundable!
The two human traffickers snapped out of their shock and wanted to hit Shi Yu, but she suddenly trembled and jumped onto the roof of the van, crouching there and looking down at the people beneath her.
“Grandma Huang is here! You better kneel down imdiately!”
Her loud and piercing voice made people shudder. Xiao Qian scread in coordination with her act.
“Ah, she’s not possessed, she has beco a fairy! Is she going to perform a miracle?”
Being possessed and becoming a fairy are different. Possession usually ans sothing bad has happened to the person, but becoming a fairy ans they have a deep connection with the immortal, and can communicate with them, gaining knowledge from the past to the future!
Once they beco a fairy, they will essentially beco a shaman in rural areas known for fortune-telling and making money in amazing ways. No one dares to offend them.
In general, there are different types of immortals in the belief system, such as Huang Xian as a yellow weasel, fox spirits, snake spirits, and ghost spirits. Southeast Asia also has a sowhat similar concept called “sorcerer.” They all share the sa idea in inviting spirits to enter their bodies, bestowing various supernatural abilities.
For example, when an elderly person in the village has a severe illness and doesn’t know when they will pass away, they ask shamans for advice. The shaman predicts when the person is in danger, so the family can make preparations in advance. People also consult shamans about marriage compatibility, predicting the gender of their child, or solving conflicts between in-laws, such as finding out who stole sothing. If they beco ill and dications don’t work, they might think it’s caused by a cursed spell, so they need the help of a shaman to remove it.
Shi Yu heard about this concept of “performing miracles” from Xiao Qian, who told her about a woman in a village who suddenly started talking gibberish and claiming that she had beco a fairy. People from remote areas are more likely to believe in these things.
When a person becos a fairy and starts fortune-telling or offering advice, it is called “performing miracles.”
Yellow weasels are abundant in this area, and they sotis hide in firewood stacks. Xiao Qian let Shi Yu pretend to be possessed by Huang Xian.
No one knows whether there’s scientific evidence behind it, but many people in villages believe in it. Families with shamans can make a lot of money.
Xiao Qian asked Shi Yu to pretend to be a shaman at this critical mont.People in such places generally have no education and are the most superstitious.
As expected, after Xiao Yu shouted, several older people actually knelt down. Big Baldy had traveled a lot and was more worldly-wise. Although he felt a little unnerved, he still mustered up the courage to kick the car.
“Get off quickly, or I’ll kill you!”
“Kill ? Soone in your family will die, soone in your family will die! At this mont, Shi Touyu’s performance was truly heartfelt. She pointed at Big Baldy and shouted. The woman trafficker called Da i quickly stepped forward and bowed, “Huang Xian, please forgive us. We didn’t know.” -Kneel and kowtow to , then I’ll forgive you!” Shi Yu said resentfully.
“Eldest Brother, better to believe in the existence!”
Big Baldy still maintained a skeptical attitude, not kneeling down and stopping Da i from kneeling as well.
Suddenly, Shi Touyu stood up and pointed at the sky, “1 am the ancient Huang Xian’er Shi Touyu. You all must respect as Grandma Huang. Today, you are lucky to et an immortal. You dare not believe it, dare not believe ! Heaven and earth spirits, Taishang Laojun, please show up. Soul Returns, summon the souls, summon the souls! Departed people, co back to life!”
Xiao Qian was speechless. Randomly reciting lines again! Are Taishang Laojun and your Grandma Huang on the sa side? You even brought up Qu Yuan’s Soul Returns!
Every experience in life is precious wealth. Even if it doesn’t seem all that good at the mont, you never know when it might co in handy.
Shi Touyu had an unpleasant experience in the drama club. The club president betrayed her good friend, Boss Qian, which caused her to leave the club in a rage. She once regretted why she joined the lousy club in the first place, nearly causing Xiao Qian to stop hanging out with her.
But at this mont, Shi Touyu was grateful for the acting skills that the drama club had given her. It was just perfect to deceive these ignorant people. Everyone was frightened by her performance. Shi Touyu stood on the roof of the car, fully devoted to her act. She convulsed and shouted while doing it. “Summon the souls, the dead people co back to life! Look who I summoned, Wasabi Seed! It’s Wasabi Seed!”
When Shi Touyu shouted the na Xiao Qian told her to say, the man who bought her showed a sudden change in his expression and couldn’t hide his amazent.
After she shouted, Shi Touyu suddenly stared with wide-opened eyes, switched to a deeper voice, pointed at the man who bought her, took off one of her shoes, and threw it at him with force.
“You turtle bastard! Squandering money, engaging in misdeeds! AU the inheritance I left for you, did you use it aU to buy won?! Turtle bastard, turtle bastard, Da Paozi!”
At her shout, the entire crowd of villagers watching the show let out a gasp. This was real!
It’s true possession! The soul of the dead has really possessed her!
Wasabi Seed is the recently deceased father of Da Paozi, who is the man who bought Shi Touyu.
Xiao Qian knew about this from her past life’s resources. She rembered this information when she hypnotized Shi Touyu.
-Who are you? Don’t co over, don’t co over!” The ferocious Da Paozi was fearless against living people, but respected the legends of gods and ghosts. Xiao Yu rembered Xiao Qian’s repeated instructions- after changing her identity, she needed to be fierce, the fiercer the better, and recite her lines word for word.
With a fierce determination, she jumped down, picked up a rock from the ground, and smashed it at Da Paozi’s half-bald head.
“You ungrateful bastard, you don’t even rember your own father.. The scar on your head was made by with a hot iron!”
